Select the item in the list you want to change using the up/down patch buttons.
2.
Select your change using the left/right octave shift buttons.
3.

9.0 The Noise Threshold
This is the threshold at which the instrument will trigger - a sound will be heard or the blue
LED will flash. So that even the gentlest strikes produce a sound we have set the noise
threshold at 7
.
You may want this lower for finger playing. Or this may be too sensitive for
some players. In electrically 'noisy environments' on stage or when taking sounds from an
'electrically noisy' laptop the instrument may pick up unwanted external influence and the
blue LED will flash randomly. Just raise the threshold a notch or two to remedy. You can
find this setting in Global Settings D. If you don't like the new setting repeat the process.
10.0 Different Ways of Manipulating Your Sound Volume.
1. Turn the sensitivity knob up to increase volume (affects the instrument Globally)
2. You could use a volume pedal between sound source and amplification.
3. Raise minimum volume in your patch setting – F. Min Velocity - so that your sound
makes an entrance even if you have hit too softly (useful in theatre/ensemble work).
4. Lower maximum volume in your patch setting G. Max Velocity - so that your sound
won't be too loud even if you have hit too hard (useful in theatre/ensemble work).
